Bambie did have a poor game. I can only single out our starting 8 forwards and marcell coetsee for having a good game. Our backline is poor. We might as well start the game with 15 forwards. We might to consider bringing back morne steyn for the English test and dropping our captain. Cant blame the backline, if the flyhalf and inside centre are clueless.

David, I dont agree completely. Goosen is the real deal, but he is injury prone, which worries me. I wish he wasnt, cos we do not look all that good.

Duiwel, Meyer has had to deal with the loss of a whole lot of senior players and a bunch of injuries. Our defense and forwards are seriously up for it, what we need is a different backline coach and a new inside centre

1. Why is Lambie so much poorer than he was for Guppies?
2. JdeV was magnificent on defense, gained metres over
the gainline every time – but then we get slow ball?
Surely this is where you attack hand to hand from?
3. Question: Is Kirchner part of the backline – creating
the man over etc. – or not? And why?
4. Boks look much more confident on defense than on
attack. Why? (Afraid for the wrath of HM?)
5. Total lack of play between backs and forwards.
6. Ball never going through the hands. Hougaard
and JPP never got a ball. Instead we usually
kicked or bashed.
Perhaps you can add to the points raised.

CJ vd Linde vindicated all my earlier criticism
against him. He was POOR.

Gurthro completely missed 2 (3?) tackles where
he was bounced off.

That Scottish try from the lineout cancells out
a lot of the good Bok defence. That was an
elementary mistake.
